If I could live my life all over, it wouldn’t matter anyway
Who will watch the Watchmen bloggers?
With ESPN set for world domination of both national and local coverage, the chron slowly imploding like a dying star getting ready to turn into a black hole, and deadspin turning into TMZ these days with this whole whose sleeping with who at ESPN, and coverage of Tiger Woods’ latest strange car accident (which I cannot even begin to try to follow with out my head hurting), the world needs a hero Houston needs a reliable independent media outlet for sports. You can’t turn to the free press, because they mailed it in hiring John Royal, and hipsters don’t care about sports (unless it’s teams that perpetually lose like the Mets, Cubs, Clippers etc).
Can FaF fill that niche? No, because we lack the financial backing, no one besides Septimus is willing to quit their job to be a blogger (remember that time Septimus quit his job just to blog?), and also who will fill the FAF niche of mailing in blog posts late (when we have no real deadlines), so that we can cover all the stuff we want to cover that you don’t care about?
But FaF can give you 1/2 assed summaries of all the crap you already know happened, and here they are.
Houston Rockets - Beat the ever up-and-coming Thunder to remain in 3rd in the southwest division. They’re so scrappy!
Houston Texans – Dropped their 3rd straight game in disappointing fashion. This time to the Colts after jumping out to a 14-0 lead. Each loss looks more like the Texans beating themselves than anything else. Maybe it’s because our QB looks like a cable installer or an electrician. At least last year we got to laugh at the Rosencopter.
Houston Cougars - Are preparing for the C-USA title game after a much needed week of rest. I really like how Sumlin kept the team active last week by scrimmaging a high school squad on Saturday, instead of letting them get lazy. Actually, the football team tied the basketball team in points scored on Saturday to win 3rd place in the Alaska Shootout, but the football team didn’t shoot as many three’s. At least the news didn’t interview any bumbling drunk UH fans

Listen, I LOVE the premise of today’s post. The post itself? Meh. But the premise was like someone dropped an acid-bomb inside my head! Err…not that I’d know what that was like.
What, you don’t like how I call for change but refuse to act? That’s the American way
I thought the post was spot on from top to bottom. Pipez is really bringing it lately.
The best thing was that that student’s rambling was for about 5 minutes. I guess news 39 didn’t want their viewers to be subject to the whole “After the game we’re going to the Rice Village to turn it into the UH Village!” slur. Also, who’s the cool guy standing next to the talker. I want someone like him to be in my posse. If I could only be that lucky…
Oh yeah, did any one else have a Slimer sighting in that news clip?
I love the ‘We HATE the nerds’ line…
Is there something that can be done, so that mentioning the texans would be forbidden on the boards until they WIN a game? seriously…they are hot garbage that just got set on fire again.
Little known factoid: the texans actually have a play called the ‘Rosencopter’.
Man, does VY just win football games…good thing you guys have Super Mario; he has proven that he can win(?) football gamez.
I love a mailed-in Mail-In post!
Who knew? The Texans are the neighborhood eight-year old kid that hasn’t learned how to walk, carries a “security blankie” around in public, and still sucks his “wittle tumb” when bitch-slapped in the moosh.
I remember one time it was commented that Buddy Ryan would blitz a junior high squad to kingdom come if his momma was the QB…imagine how quickly the Texans curl up into the fetal position if he was still around!
Nice knowing you, Koob. You *could* save your job with five wins to finish up, but I wouldn’t even peg the boys as a solid favorite against Seattle or St Louis…
Enough of them being mentioned here. That’s dangerously close to having them being the gas that this scrappy m-80 of an outfit really doesn’t need.
P.S. I can haz an earache that feels like a pick axe is being jammed into my right ear? Yes, I can! Yay.
Houston Texans = The Land that Time Forgot
Let’s pretend that they never happened until they decide to legitimize their selves with a front office, ‘decent’ players, a non-backup QB, and a non-backup Coach. Enough already with the ‘It’s on me’ press conferences, fire his stinking .500 azz and move on.
Complete with that little hairy kid and everything…
